Tried it.  Didnt seem to work.

If I can't find Apple saying 'yes, call CloseDeskAcc' then I can't rely on it.
I figured the problem might have been because I was calling 'CloseDeskAcc'
last thing before returning, but I was still going back through LightSpeed C
3.01's DA glue, which might cause problems.

Also, Suitcase probably wouldn't help either.

Anyone think of something not involving CloseDeskAcc?
